The artwork is beautiful and I love the concept, but the English is atrocious! In a case like this, it might make sense to make the story portions editable or have some kind of crowd-sourced assistance.



Yes. Thank you for your feedback. We are working on better English now.

We also have opportunity for user to feedback about text mistakes. Select wrong text, then ctrl+enter, and propose your version.

Thanks again


I've ran into similar troubles as a foreigner developing an English app. I've looked into Amazon Mechanical Turk for spell checking but unfortunately they only accept US customers (money laundering laws - I'm sad not even a big corp like Amazon can put a legal framework in place to cover at least some European market - I'd even get a UK address and CC for that matter).

There's also Soylent[1] in the pipeline for which I hope they'll release an API such that you can integrate it into apps other than word. It's also based on mechanical turk but I hope they'll accept non-US customers as an intermediary.


Does Soylent actually offer multiple levels, from red to green?
